Kazuo Oguri, one of Japan's most infamous tattoo artists, introduced the West to traditional Japanese techniques and tattoo iconography when he visited Sailor Jerry in Hawaii in the early 60s. Western tattoo has never been the same! Written by Yushi "Horikichi" Takei, Horihide seeks to celebrate the life and work of Oguri by including photos, full color paintings, and interviews with Doc Forest, Bill Loika, and Henk "Hanky Panky" Schiffmacher, fellow tattoo heroes and steadfast Horihide fans. This book is a must for anyone interested in tattoo history or Japanese tattooing!!
